Democrats rolling toward ”shellacking”
❝Everywhere you look, it seems, Democrats are in for a “shellacking” in November. Sometimes, disaster is like a rolling freight train. Nothing can be done to stop it.

Sean Trende on the Emerging Democratic Majority
People read Emerging Democratic Majority and decided it was eschatology, rather than a fairly specific argument for modestly more aggressive Clintonism. https://t.co/42BckKG31w

Biden and Schumer keep giving
❝As historians have long wondered at the remarkable cosmic chance that led to John Lennon and Paul McCartney existing at the same time and in the same place, so political spectators might someday come to marvel at the rank misfortune that has led the Democratic Party to be saddled simultaneously with Joe Biden as president and Chuck Schumer as Senate majority leader.

Jon Stewart’s secret Obama meetings reveal he’s a partisan hack
❝It turns out Jon Stewart isn’t our Edward R. Murrow or our Mark Twain. He’s more like Jay Carney. Don’t count on future generations knowing Stewart’s name any more than they will know Carney’s.

Obama owns Middle East disaster
If you break it, you own it. That’s the supposed rule that Democrats imposed on the Bush administration as it allowed Iraq to descend into bloody chaos. If George W. Bush owned the Iraqi disaster, Barack Obama owns the implosion of America’s position in the Middle East.

“You’re partisan—what do you call it—hacks.”
❝”The Daily Show” isn’t enduring political satire. It’s more like sports talk radio for liberals. Liberals watch it not to be informed but to get caught up in team spirit, a big part of which is simply mindlessly razzing the other team.

Paglia: Liberal media “shockingly unprofessional”
When the first secret Planned Parenthood video was released in mid-July, anyone who looks only at liberal media was kept totally in the dark about it, even after the second video was released. But the videos were being run nonstop all over conservative talk shows on radio and television. It was a huge and disturbing story, but there was total silence in the liberal media. That kind of censorship was shockingly unprofessional. The liberal major media were trying to bury the story by ignoring it.

50 years later, Medicaid and Medicare still spend us into oblivion
When Medicare and Medicaid programs were created back in 1965, no one ever thought they would get this big or cost this much. Congressional budgeters at the time thought Medicare, the healthcare program for the elderly, would cost about $12 billion by 1990. The actual cost that year was $90 billion.
